Synopsis

Pierre leads the Noetic Society Parmenides study group through another session of study. Lately we've been taking a break from the Parmenides, going through Proclus' Theology of Plato(*) instead, in order to see how Proclus lays out the 14 orders of gods implied in the Parmenides.

Today we read Book 6, Chapter 22.

From Barbara:

There was a chart and a part of another--ran out of paper, had some more but PG didn't want to stop for installation so he wrote on the side of 2-10-20 and the top fold. Jeff was taking pictures as I left.

We went over the Guardian and the Demiurgic Triads in Chapter 22 of Book 6 and read through the last paragraph of the chapter.

I also brought in a book of mythology, The Twelve Olympians.
